Discover the perfect intersection of cozy loungewear and collegiate pride. The Kansas Jayhawks Waffle Knit Half-Zip redefines fan apparel by ditching standard fleece for a sophisticated, tactile waffle weave.
2026 Jayhawks EST 1890 Half Quarter Zip Waffle Hoodie | Show Your Support
The hoodie is a standout piece of fan gear designed for the modern supporter.  The design features a functional half-zip / quarter-zip placket with a premium metal zipper, allowing for adjustable airflow and easy layering over t-shirts or jerseys. The front is dominated by a spacious kangaroo pocket, integrated seamlessly into the waffle texture, providing a warm refuge for hands or convenient storage for your phone and keys.
Visually, the hoodie screams heritage. It showcases the classic “Jayhawk” mascot embroidered on the chest and sleeve, along with bold, collegiate “JAYHAWKS” lettering across the center. The “EST. 1890” detail on the shoulder is a nod to the university’s historic athletic beginnings, adding a layer of authenticity that true alumni will appreciate.

Why This Product Is Hot Right Now?
The “Texture” Trend: In 2025, flat fabrics are out, and texture is in. Waffle knits, corduroys, and bouclé fabrics are trending heavily in streetwear. This hoodie capitalizes on that trend, making it fashionable beyond just the sports arena.
Heritage Branding: Fans are moving away from loud, neon sports gear and toward “quiet luxury” sports apparel—items that feature vintage logos, muted tones (like this heather grey), and historical dates.
Functional Fashion: With unpredictable weather patterns, the ability to layer (thanks to the zip) and cover up (thanks to the hood) makes this a practical investment for the smart consumer.
